Mr. Potato Heads in California Adv?

[RKB]

We are going to DL/CA soon! I know I read somewhere that there is a place in Ca Adventure where you can buy all of the parts for a Mr. Potato Head that you can stuff into a box for a certain price. I assume that they are Disney themed Potato Head pieces? I am just trying to prepare ahead of time. I thought about buying my sons 2 potato heads so they would already have those parts. Does anyone know what I am talking about?! If so which store is it and how much $? TIA!

You can buy it at Engine-Ears Toys. As you walk into DCA, it's the first shop on your right hand side.

My exSIL just did that a couple of weekends ago when we were there. It's $18 for the box, and items include two arms that hold things, Mickey glove, Mickey ice cream bar, Mad Hatter's hat, Mickey's sorcerer hat, Minnie shoes, shoes w/painted toes, & other Disney accessories. They keep the bins pretty full. She was able to fill the box, and then add some extra noses, eyes, etc. I think getting the potato heads ahead of time is a great idea. You might also want to bring a container or bag for them - those boxes aren't going to last that long when they play with them.

Thanks - I think I will get the potato heads before we go - this will be fun for them!

Hi
I just got back last week and brought home 4 boxes of potato head parts! Yes, they are $18 a box and they have many disney themed pieces. It's very smart to pick up the bodies and standard parts ahead of time as it would just waste space in your box if you need those too.
If you're going before Christmas, they also have christmas themed pieces too! We got a christmas tree and a santa hat with mickey ears. It's not easy to pack all the disney bits into one box, but it can be done.
As of last week I saw
sorcerer's apprentice hat
mickey ears
minnie bow
goofy hat and ears
Mad Hatter's hat
mickey bars
mickey balloons
Disney autograph book
princess tiara
princess shoes
suitcase (it opens and can hold stuff too)
DL ticket
video camera with ears
Mickey gloves
Christmas tree
santa hat with ears

There was also a santa set available for $7 that contained a santa hat, beard, santa sack and some small face pieces too.

Be sure to get a couple sets of arms (there are left & right ones) as they hold the accessories and the regular potato head ones don't.

I love this toy as a gift!!

You can ask a cast member to help you pack your parts into the box ... After the cast member packed my box I left just missed 4 piece. I didn't get 3 hat (bride/groom,pirate) and 1 shoe (standard pair) in the box.
